'Americans can play football too!': Brenden Aaronson says US presence in the Premier League 'is going to get better' after starring for Jesse Marsch's Leeds in 3-0 win vs. Chelsea

After making history as the first American to score a Premier League for an American coach, Brenden Aaronson told the rest of the division 'this is only the start'.

Aaronson pressed Chelsea goalkeeper Edouard Mendy into losing possession for him to score from close range, becoming the first American to score for an American coach - Jesse Marsch - in the history of the Premier League.

Aaronson also became the first American to score for Leeds in the Premier League. His side ran out as 3-0 winner in the end, with Rodrygo and Jack Harrison scoring the other goals.
